Thanks for any help. You can safely do a liver flush. Please go to www.curezone.com and you will find a liver forum that can help you. You will also find the recipe for the liver flush there. Your Dr. is wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 21, 2002 Report Share Posted July 21, 2002 Well, according to my doctor I had just one large gallstone, but within nine months I had no gallstone(s), as of the time of the last ultrasound. My doctor wanted me to schedule for an operation to be done within the next two weeks after the diagnostic was completed by an MRI. The process of working towards the goal of getting rid of gallstones is really relatively simple it just takes some new resolves in one's life in order to keep with a healthy diet plan. It really isn't a matter of dieting as is common to dieting as much as simply having a diet that is abundant with food, and exercise too. Avoiding all saturated and hydrogenated fats starts the process. Next in line is working at avoiding foods that don't let the liver do its job as efficiently as it will need to do in order to start reducing the size of the gallstones, which hopefully are not calcified and required only an X-ray to be noticed, this would call for avoiding such things as cheeses and white refined wheat flour. Doing things like the liver and gallbladder flush can be pretty intimidating to someone just learning about their liver and gallbladder problems but at least I would say you're going to be starting at the right place. There are other groups too to which you may want to join to add to the information you'll be gaining here. One such group is the Bowelcleanse group. There is a synergetic relationship between the stomach, small intestines, large intestines, liver, gallbladder, and pancreas. It is pretty important to get the bowels in good working order so as to help the liver do its job of helping to cleanse out the bile stones that may have developed in it too as well as in the gallbladder. bowel cleanse/messages There are many modalities to which to turn in getting things in order too. Such things as parasite cleansing, ozone or oxygen therapies, castor oil packs, colonic or enemas, and the taking of such supplements as lecithin, taurine, and other essential fatty acids will help. Getting an understanding of just what these individual modalities are doing really helps a lot in getting an idea of just what the body is needing and doing with what it is provided. There are many books to which to turn for getting an education regarding the liver, gallbladder, colon connection but one that I often recommend is Dr. Cabot's, " The Liver Cleansing Diet " . It is simple and straight forward regarding the liver, and has a good diet plan for getting it in order for the rest of the body to also be brought to good order. Check the doctor's questionnaire and see how you fare. This will let you see that it really isn't the gallbladder and the stones there that really needs the work. It's the Liver that's crying for good food to get the bile built that will help to reduce the size of the bile stones already existing in the gallbladder or liver. http://www.liverdoctor.com/liverquestionnaire.shtml We all wish you the best in this endeavor. However, this isn't something that works for all people as some do have situations such as gallbladders that are so diseased that they will not come back to health or calcium types of stones that just won't move and do have to be removed. Then too there are those of us who are enjoying our successes in this endeavor to keep what we started with in this life we live.

My doctor said that passing them would be impossible, removing the gall bladder is the only solution. Is he right? No, he is giving you false information, doesn't care about what happens to you and probably lying to you to put more money in his pocket. If you take care of yourself and get rid of them on your own, instead of taking his bogus advice, he will probably get quite pissed off at you. Which should tell you he has only his own interests in mind and not yours. > Is it possible to break them up somehow or dissolve them before cleansing? Yes, of course. Before, during, and after cleansings. And cleansing the bowel is VERY important. I agree with ette and Dale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 23, 2002 Report Share Posted July 23, 2002 It depends on what kind of stones they are and the condition of your gallbladder. Sometimes they can pass with flushing...and sometimes they can't. If your gallbladder is in good shape still and the stones are not too large...the flushing may be all you need to do. Since the stones did show up in your tests....it is most highly likely they are the hardened kind of stones....so the shape, size, and texture of the stones will be the determining factor. If only two stones show up and appear to fill the gallbladder...then you gallbladder may still be in good enough condition to stretch and pass them okay. The only way to find out is try the flush. Yes, you risk having the stones get stuck in the bile duck which will cause an attack...but even then, if they fail to pass, the results will be gallbladder removal. Sometimes the stones will move and then fall back in the gallbladder requiring several attempts before they pass. The biggest risks are that trying to pass the stones may rupture the gallbladder or a stone will detour and get suck in the pancreatic duck. From my understanding this is rare and can occur without even trying to do a flush. It's a choice only you can make. All I can say is do your research before you decide. Get to know your stones as best you can before you do the flush. Christa > Help!! > My ultrasound showed two very large gallstones filling most of the > space in my gall bladder.
